Instructions

Description: Embrace a botanical journey with the Crimson Sour Botanica, a twist on the classic gin sour. This innovative cocktail is infused with the vibrant, tangy flavors of sorrel, pairing its unique floral tartness with the botanical complexities of gin. The sorrel gin sour is an aromatic, visually stunning, and refreshing drink that offers a perfect balance of sour, sweet, and herbal notes. Its deep crimson hue makes it as much a feast for the eyes as for the palate. Ingredients: - 2 oz Gin (preferably a dry style to complement the sorrel) - 1 oz Sorrel syrup (homemade or store-bought) - 3/4 oz Fresh lemon juice - 1/2 oz Simple syrup - 1 Egg white (or 1 oz aquafaba for a vegan alternative) - Ice cubes - Garnish: A small sprig of fresh thyme and a slice of dehydrated lemon Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, combine gin, sorrel syrup, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and the egg white (or aquafaba). 2. Dry shake (without ice) vigorously for about 15 seconds to emulsify the egg white and create a frothy texture. 3. Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well-chilled, typically for about 30 seconds. 4. Double strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass to ensure a smooth texture and to hold back any ice chips. 5. Allow the foam to settle for a moment, then garnish with a small sprig of fresh thyme gently placed on top of the foam and a slice of dehydrated lemon on the rim of the glass for an aromatic touch. Glass: Serve in a chilled coupe glass to showcase its rich color and to maintain the integrity of the delicate foam topping. The coupe glass also adds a touch of class and elegance to the presentation of the Crimson Sour Botanica.
